Question: People are saying that the vibration of our earth plane is changing rapidly, elevating, and that the veil between our world and other dimensions is becoming thinner and easier to transgress. Do you [Polaris] experience any difference in this energy shift when interacting with us? And what is happening with this shift?  How will our experience with other dimensions change?

As you—on your planet collectively—move through your experiential growth lessons, it affects the overall vibration that surrounds you in terms of the energy that is of your planet. We would say that, yes, that rate of vibration has been changing. It will continue to change.

Now, has the rate of this vibrational change increased lately?  There has been a great deal of energy transmitted toward the earth plane. There is no "grand design" to do anything in particular with this; it is simply part of the agreement that you all hold.  There is a collective global agreement to move things along at a different rate.   This is something that all of you are taking part in.   Every one of you—not just in this room, but globally—has a collective agreement to make some changes that affect your planet. This will have a variety of effects. Some of you are becoming impatient with your lessons. Some of you would like to see even more things happen!

We expect there to be a continuing snowball effect, causing an increased level of movement. This is partly due to the the effects of momentum as you collectively move on through your experiential growth lessons.  In other words, through the soul-perception you are experiencing.  You become interested in having different kinds of experiences collectively, as a whole.  So if the overall vibratory rate of all of you is centered around relationship issues, as opposed to issues of acquisition and power—if collectively you were to be mostly interested in relationship issues—then that will have a marked effect on how your world looks.

It will change your economic basis.  It will change how you interact with one another on many levels.  It will change your political systems.  It will change your attention to the environment. In other words, it will change every single aspect of life as you know it.

How long will this take? When we talk about things speeding up, we're talking about a relative basis.  Most of you reading these words have noticed a significant change within your lifetime—some of you are sensitive to changes in energy. On that basis we have to say yes, there are and will be changes within your lifetime. Now, will most of you see a marked change in the way you live your lives within the course of your lifetime? Probably not—unless you make specific choices to do so.  However, interestingly enough, the pathways are opening up, more so now than they have been, for you to be able to make those kinds of choices.

If, for instance, you are interested in intentional communal living, there will be more choices available to you in this lifetime for you to experiment with this concept.  That it is just one example, but overall, worldwide, would there be a large change within the context of your lifetimes in terms of day-to-day living and how they are lived?  Not likely, but there is always change.

So we've answered part of your question; would like some follow-up?

Followup question:   Yes, can you speak about the opening up to connections and to guides and to the causal plane where you are?

A very simple answer to that would be "yes", but here's what is taking place: there is more overall openness to other energies beyond that of the Self. In other words, overall on a global level, there is more and more openness to energy such as ours.  So it makes our job easier!  It just means that there is more connection, you see, because there is more openness to that connection.  The energy that is being transmitted has not changed, and it has always been there. It simply has been connected to on a different basis in the past.

There have been other periods in human history where there was a great deal of connection such as there is beginning to be now. This is not the only time in human history that there is been this level of mid-causal energy affecting things on the earth plane.  This has happened several times in the course of human history and some of you were there when that was happening!  Some of you remember on some level what that was like, and some of you were involved with it.   There is a familiarity there for you.

In the end, it is good to remember that there is always change.  Change is a part of your experience.
